DCFS Linkages

Homeless families who are on CalWORKS and in the DCFS (children and family services) are now able to have their services coordinated. If the DCFS worker screens a Family Maintenance family for CalWORKS and sees a possible eligibility – the supportive services can be provided by and paid by GAIN.

In English, this means that families involved in any part of DPSS and in DCFS will get the organized full support of social workers involved with those families.
